Weekly Activities

April 27 - We Aren't Strangers - Putt-Putt and Fun Noodle Bar

Join us on Thursday nights at 7pm for a small meal and a safe place to find community and belonging. This week, we are going out to eat at Fun Noodle House and we are going to play putt-putt at Adventure Park. Meet at Canterbury at 7pm and we will all carpool. Canterbury will cover all the fees.

What is We Aren't Strangers? It will be a time for connection, belonging, sharing our stories, expressing our emotions, and the great thing about this event will be that it is open to all people. This is a space where all people can be fed physically, emotionally, and spiritually while at the same time honoring everyone’s faith traditions and gifts and light that we all bring to this community. And we promise that we will not try to convert you or change you. That is not the way we do things here. All we want to do is to know you, love, and support you as a student here at Texas Tech. 'Our conversation will be participant lead and all people who attend have a space to teach us about their gifts, interests, passions, faith, philosophy, life, and journey.
